Things to do in Birmingham

As mentioned cherry reds has good range, especially for breakfast. Good all round option plus not too far.

Damascena is always good and will have plenty of vegan options.

Tiger bites pig have their own place and a few good vegan options. They’re also at st Paul’s market which will have a few traders, pretty sure zindiya & soi provide vegan options (Indian & Thai).

For full vegan Baha at the rainbow, unless you go all out at land restaurant.

Cafe soya also used to be good for vegan options but I’ve not been for a while. Likewise with Vietnamese street kitchen.

I’m vegan and recently spent a couple of night in Birmingham.

Land is probably one of the best vegan restaurants in the country, pretty expensive but probably worth it imo.

Cherry Reds for decent vgn breakfast, not sure about normal menu.

St Paul’s Market had bao from tiger bites pig, was good and will give chance to order other/meat stuff from other traders. Had decent local craft beer choices too

Coffee Tales right next Damascena has a really nice vegan breakfast. Think had vgn cakes too.

Doesn’t look like will be of use to you but went to a veggie Indian called Darbar.

Think the Medicine bakery/cafe places had decent vgn options too

Recommend musuem of the jewellery quarter and the cocktail bar Lucky 7. For non food stuff.

Cherry Reds!

Craven Arms is a nice real ale type boozer. Look at them tiles!

Planning a day trip here next weekend and this thread has been so helpful! We’re arriving mid morning so thinking we’ll do the library garden first, then Cherry Reds for lunch, then Think Tank in the afternoon. Is Cherry Reds still good? Also wondering if it’s popular enough to mean 7 people might struggle to get a table for a Saturday lunchtime?

Yes and also yes
